Subject: Help: need bye for Osborne-1

I seem to be in over my head.  I'm trying to set up a private BBS
for a non-profit (religious) radio station.  They have a Hayes 1200
modem and an Osborne-1.

I got the bye339 stuff from simtel20, but I can't seem to make it
work.  It writes strange characters all over the screen and, what
is even more frustrating, it doesn't act consistently.  One time it
does one thing, and the next time it does something else.  If I
persist, the disk develops bad sectors.

I noted in the documentation of bye5 that bye5 will not work with
the Ozzy-1 unless there is a hardward mod.  Is that what the problem
is with the bye3?

The bottom line is that I need to find out whether there is a version
of bye that will run on the Ozzy-1, preferably without a hardware mod.

Can anybody out there help me?
